When I started my PhD, I thought the hardest part would be balancing academic & clinical work – the clinical trials, the data analysis, the endless writing, & the hospital shifts. But life had something much bigger & more meaningful in store for me.
And then, COVID-19 pandemic hit. With the country in lockdown, I was on the frontlines, working long shifts, caring for patients, & contributing to vaccine research. My PhD paused for about 8 months as we focused on fighting the global crisis. It was one of the most humbling periods of my life & it taught me resilience in ways no textbook ever could.
During this journey, I also got married, became a wife, & then a mum to two beautiful children. Suddenly, my life wasn’t just about research papers & hospital calls anymore, it became about night feeds, teething, & finding small moments of rest between it all.
Balancing a PhD, clinical work, & family life was incredibly hard. There were nights I comforted a sick baby while worrying about a deadline & mornings I headed to hospital shifts running on two hours of sleep. And when I completed my viva, I was pregnant with my second baby, a moment that made this achievement even more special. Every chapter of my PhD was written alongside a new chapter of life.
Through it all, I learned that strength isn’t about doing everything perfectly. It’s about showing up, even when you’re exhausted & remembering why you started. I learned to let go of perfection, to focus on what truly matters, & to lean on the people who love me, my husband, my family, & my mentors.
My research focused on wearable technology & how it can help patients recover after breast cancer surgery. And whenever things got tough, I thought of the women I hoped this research would help – strong, brave women who inspired me to keep going.
To all the women juggling work, studies, & family, it is possible. Just keep going, one step at a time. If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s this: you don’t have to choose between your dreams & your family. You can grow both, with love, courage, & perseverance. You are capable of more than you can imagine. ❤️🌻
Grateful for the chance to slow down, explore the coast, and make beautiful memories together ❤️🌊
Exciting update from the NHS— the chickenpox (varicella) vaccine will soon be part of the routine childhood immunisation schedule!
I’ve had so many of you reach out with questions, especially parents wondering what this means for their little ones. As a doctor (and a mum!), I know how important it is to understand what’s going into your child’s body.
In this Q&A, I’ll be covering:
💉 Why the chickenpox vaccine is being introduced now
🤔 Is it safe and effective?
👶 Who should get it and when?
🌍 What this means for public health
💉 Protecting children, preventing complications, and reducing outbreaks.
Let’s make informed choices for our children’s future. Feel free to drop more questions below — I’ll do my best to answer them!
Hot stone massage is not a must after childbirth.
You can use it for comfort, but your uterus will shrink back on its own — with hormones & time.
⚠️ Avoid placing heat directly on birth wounds or a C-section scar.
Tungku panas tak wajib selepas bersalin.
Boleh guna untuk rasa selesa, tapi rahim tetap akan mengecut sendiri — dengan hormon & masa.
Elakkan guna tungku atas luka bersalin atau c-section.
It makes me realise how fleeting these early days are. The late-night cuddles, the little hands reaching for me, the way she still needs me for comfort…one day, all of this will be just a memory.
So I’m learning to slow down, to hold her a little longer, and to soak in the small moments that matter most. Motherhood isn’t always easy, but it is filled with the most beautiful reminders of love. 💕
To all the mamas walking this journey too — cherish these days, even when they feel long. Because in the blink of an eye, our babies will grow up and write their own stories.🌸 (and yes… I’m crying with happiness!)
😴 Tip 1: Put your baby sleep on their back
Back is best — every sleep, every time.
🛏️ Tip 2: Firm Sleep Surface
No pillows. No toys. No loose bedding. Just a firm, flat cot. You can use a sleeping bag to keep your baby warm.
🤱 Tip 3: No Bed-Sharing The safest place for a baby to sleep is in their own clear, flat, separate sleep space, in the same room as you for at least the first 6 months. It could be a cot, crib, Moses basket, or pram carrycot. They can move to a separate bedroom when they’re >6 months old.
🌡️ Tip 4: Avoid overheating
Keep it cool ❄️
Overheating is risky.

I would like to re-introduce myself. My name is Amalina and I am originally from Malaysia 🇲🇾. I am a Specialty Registrar & a Clinical Research Fellow at Imperial College London.
I was awarded Kijang Emas Scholarship from the Central Bank of Malaysia to study UG medicine after scoring the top results in the country. I graduated as a medical doctor from the University of Edinburgh, in 2013, where I also completed my BMedSc Pharmacology with an ERASMUS exchange at Leiden University, The Netherlands. I did an internship at Harvard Medical School, USA, followed by a foundation year (F1/F2) training (housemanship) in Cambridge. Simultaneously, I completed my Master's from the University of Cambridge in 2015.
During my surgical training in London, I won the Darzi Clinical Research Fellowship and am currently doing a PhD in surgical innovation & breast cancer. My PhD project is funded by NIHR grant. Additionally, I am an academic supervisor for medical students/BSc students & a guest lecturer for Imperial MSc Health Policy.
I started my social media platforms in 2017 with the aim of sharing knowledge & addressing medical misinformation online, as well as inspiring younger generations to pursue their dreams in medicine. I am a strong advocate for women's empowerment & share educational posts for public health education & medical teaching for medical students/junior doctors. I’ve been appointed as an ambassador for Genomics England. I also work with Public Health England (NHS), No. 10 Downing Street, and Team Halo (Initiative by the UN) on the vaccine campaigns. I am featured in the media regularly, discussing health issues & recent hot topics.
Other than my day-to-day job, I am a Cofounder of Girls4Girls UK, to encourage young women to become leaders and be courageous in pursuing their dreams. I hope with this initiative, we will be able to help girls and young women reach their full potential and be their best selves!
I truly love what I do & I am blessed to be surrounded by a group of amazing & supportive people. That’s all of you! Thank you for all that you do.
Lots of love,
Amalina xxx
When I started my journey to further my studies in the UK, someone on the internet said “She’s not going to make it in the UK, she will fail”.
When I decided to do masters during my F1/F2 (housemanship) year, I was told “F1/F2 is tough, how are you going to complete your masters in Cambridge!”
When I started my surgical training/residency and got a job in my dream location (London), someone on social media said “That’s great, but when is she going to get married and have babies?”
When I started my PhD and got into a competitive research fellowship programme, someone on social media said “What’s the point of having all that degrees, there’s nothing to be proud of, she won’t be able to take her PhD certificate to her grave anyways”.
Every single point in your life, people will always question your decisions, create rumours/fake stories about you and will try to put you down. To all the naysayers, your words won’t stop me. What’s important is to stay true to yourself and prove them wrong with your actions. Channel that negativity into something positive and take that as a challenge to motivate you to work even harder. Be proud of yourself of what you have become. You do you. ❤️
